He just can't help himself..

john kinsella

Williams is a liability in the air. Braindead to do it twice in 2 mins

Al_Coholic

His hands weren't in a position to catch the ball in the 2nd incident
Definitely a yellow

dregin

Restraining myself here... personal insult backlog rising fast... Liam Williams. Once again.

Sanjuro

Sake, Williams. Great player, but he's an absolute liability, brainfart wise.

awec

I feel sorry for Williams for that one to be honest, thought that was a 50/50 in the air.

razorblunt

What an absolute shamble of a man that Williams is.
Expect a bombardment on him as soon as he's back.

Peregrine

I thought it was a fair contest. Feel sorry for Williams. Gauzere was more concerned with it being Willaims again than the challenge.

"Fool me once... shame on you... fool me twice... you,... well you can't fool me again" George W Bush / Liam Williams

You are the only one who thought that, he wrapped his hand on him
Right there is why Williams shouldnt start, Barrett will have a field day against him

Kanrith

Williams should have been under the ball, he seemed to be slow in getting there.

He was in no position to compete for the ball, just had to pull out. Very poor discipline.

Buer

If this was England 2003, they'd go for a drop goal off the scrum on the 22.

Exactly the same as the forward pass when Payne almost scored. Consistency is all we want, ref.

Itoje has got amazing hands

There is not a malicious fibre in Liam Williams' body but that is none-too bright.

Marler has been good. If only every position was as strong for the Lions as loosehead.

Stander has had a much, much better second half. Really stood up.

vienne86

Ah that was a great kick by Daly......just trickled out.

razorblunt

Poor choice of kick by Daly, didn't need to hoof it that long.

CMOTDibbler

Good result to get positive points from the YC period.

vienne86

Best on for Owens - Some shift by Owens.

Christy42

So will the test team simply be those who have not actively played their way off the team?

I am hoping the Lions will pull through here but the Blues should not be this much of a hurdle. A better performance from the Lions but still not a good one. Hopefully they keep improving throughout the series.

vienne86

Great scrum!

Kanrith

Great stuff! Come on Halfpenny!

krustydoyle

Great scrum

Buer

God bless French referees.

Marler has an interesting hair cut

I think the general rule at scrum time has been re-set or Lion's penalty.

LostArt

Marler did well there

krustydoyle

Lovely kick

Kanrith

I love Halfpenny again.

davo2001

Fantastic penalty by halfpenny

Buer

And that's why he's going to be in the test team.

sydthebeat

grinding out penalties isnt going to beat the all blacks.

hinault

Blues 15 - B&I 16.

10 mins remaining.

vienne86

Great hold up by Lions. Henshaw involved.

irishman86

Williams finally tackled Duffy on the ground :pac:

Sinkler seems like a likeable chap

Buer

Sinckler's enthusiasm is fantastic. A real lift to the game.

awec

Someone needs to take Itoje aside and tell him to knock that bollocks on the head, it's embarrassing.

Peregrine

I thought that was a tackle.
